This version of delicious Korean beef short ribs dish for your Instant Pot or other multi-cooker pressure cooker will have the ribs falling off the bone! Soaking the ribs first is the traditional method. I recommend soaking for at least an hour, though traditionally, you would soak them for longer, changing the water after the first hour. If you don't have an Asian pear, an apple will do as a substitute. Serve over white rice.

Ingredients

  • beef short ribs: 3 pound
  • Asian pear - peeled, cored, and: 1 piece (chopped)
  • onion: 1 piece (chopped)
  • garlic: 4 clove (chopped)

Close and lock the lid. Select Meat function according to manufacturer's instructions; set the timer for 35 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
